Levenhuk N10 NG Prepared Slides Set

Preparing a slide for study under a microscope is no simple task. First, you require special tools to cut a thin slice off the sample; second, you need to be very accurate and cautious to place the slice on the slide and cover it without ruining the slice or the glass. Knowing how much work it is, most people prefer to avoid this as much as possible. That is why we have created experiment kits that you can use to study various samples right after unpacking the box! No more cutting, no more placing, no more adding resin to complete the process – all slides in Levenhuk N10 NG are already prepared, and all you need to do is place one on the stage and focus the view.

Encourage your kid’s interest in science! Give him or her this wonderful microscope for beginners that includes everything needed for conducting independent experiments and research. And maybe these experiments will be your child’s first steps towards winning the Nobel Prize! Thanks to its wide magnification range, the microscope is suitable for observing a huge number of interesting samples. The microscope has a bright body of lime color – an ideal choice for a school kid or a student!

Quality optics
The microscope comes with three objective lenses producing 64x, 160x, and 640x magnification. 40xs objective lens (the most powerful one in the kit) is equipped with a special spring mechanism. If you accidently touch the microscope slide with the objective lens, the mechanism will prevent the slide from cracking. The microscope kit also includes 2x Barlow lens, which doubles the magnification of any given objective lens. Thus, the microscope magnification reaches 1280x!

The optics are made of quality multi-coated optical glass. As a result, you will always get clear, bright, and sharp images.

Combined illumination
The microscope features combined upper and lower LED illumination system. To observe transparent objects – thin plant cuts, aquarium water – use lower illumination. Upper illumination is used for observing opaque objects; for example, paper or cloth. Moreover, this microscope model allows for viewing translucent objects – for that purpose both illuminations are used simultaneously. You can also adjust the brightness level for the best possible view of a particular microscope sample.

Durable and convenient body
The microscope is distinguished by its modern and stylish design, as well as for its high reliability. The durable metal body of the instrument allows for its long service life even when it is used intensively in schools, colleges, or medical laboratories. For even more convenient use, the microscope head is inclined at an angle of 45 degrees. The head is also 360-degrees rotatable, which is very convenient for group work.

The microscope can run on AC power, as well as on batteries.

Caution: Please refer to the specifications table for the correct mains voltage and never attempt to plug a 110V device into 220V outlet and vice versa without using a converter. Remember that mains voltage in the U.S. and Canada is 110V and 220-240V in most European countries.

Conducting experiments
The Levenhuk K50 Experiment kit is included in the package. With this kit you can observe ready-to-use microscope samples, prepare your own slides, breed aquarium crayfish, and do many other interesting things! The informative user guide contains all necessary information about the microscope, as well as professional tips and recommendations on preparing slides and conducting experiments.

Durable case
Like any other optical instrument, this microscope requires careful handling. This reliable case securely protects the instrument from mechanical shock and dust.

Biological microscope with 64–1280x magnification

Hello! Could you please help me to choose between 2l and 50l models? What can I see through 50l that can’t be seen with 2l? Is it worth the cost? Which one’s better for observations of opaque samples?Levenhuk Customer Service:Levenhuk Rainbow 50L Microscope will be preferable as it has higher magnification and also a quality storage case included. Both microscopes allow you to observe thin cuts, prepared slides, protozoa, and some unmoving blood cells. 50L model will give you a larger, more detailed view. There’s no difference in observations of opaque samples, as biological microscopes allow such observations only at the minimum magnification power.Terry Allen

Good day! Bought here a microscope (rainbow 50l plus), everything’s good, but I cannot understand how to obtain 1280x. What we have here: 16x eyepiece and 4x, 10x, 40xs objectives. That gives us a few available magnifications: 16x4=64, 16x10=160, 16x40=640. Looks like 640x is the highest one that the model can provide.Levenhuk Customer Service:With Levenhuk Rainbow 50L PLUS Moonstone Microscope, you can obtain 1280x by using a Barlow lens. Mia Kirk

Hello! We bought this microscope a few days ago and craved to see many interesting things, but… we couldn’t see anything in the 40x objective lens. We tried to observe honey, blood, dust, bread, mold. 4x and 10x objective work just fine. We moved Barlow lens, stage, illumination – nothing. What did we do wrong?Levenhuk Customer Service:Due to the objective’s large magnification, it is hard to place samples directly under it. Therefore, you need to find your sample in the lowest magnification objective (for example, 4x), then switch objectives consistently from low to the highest one (40x).Cost

How can I make a "hanging drop" to observe the bacteria in the water?Levenhuk Customer Service:Hanging drop is a method of microscopy involving studying living bacteria under physiological growth conditions; it allows you to observe the object for a long time. To prepare a hanging drop you need to take the cover glass with tweezers, put it in the fire and cool down. Then weigh a drop of the sample in an isotonic solution of sodium chloride and apply to the center of the glass. Then the cover glass is rapidly turned downward and placed on a sterile slide glass; the edges of the well that is polished in the middle of the glass are pre-lubricated with petroleum jelly. Then you put a slide glass on the coverslip and flip them: the drop is hanging in a hermetically sealed space (see the picture). Find the drop at a low magnification and narrowed diaphragm and then study the sample at a higher magnification. Use a melted and cooled to t ° 45 ° agar instead of an isotonic sodium chloride solution in order to limit the mobility of the microorganisms.Fred Powell

Tell me please if there's any significant difference in image quality between LEVENHUK Rainbow 50L and LEVENHUK Rainbow 50L PLUS? I've just read comments and it seems that 1280x magnification isn't that useful... you can't observe bacteria and images may get blurry.

(2016-12-18 02:51):
Hello! I recently got this microscope. When I install 4x and 10x objectives, everything is good. But not with a 40x one. I can't see anything but black dots. I tried to move the stage in all possible ways, but nothing happened. What am I doing wrong?Levenhuk Customer Service:When you observe at high magnifications with Levenhuk Rainbow 50L PLUS or any other microscope, the field of view becomes much narrower. Therefore it becomes harder to locate a sample. Always start from the lowest magnification - you will be able to easily locate, center, and focus the view. Then incrementally switch to higher increases to see more detailed views. Katina Humphrey
(2016-12-14 05:48):
and what should I do if I need lower magnifications? Like 10x or 20x? This microscope minimum magnification is 64x, right?Levenhuk Customer Service:Yes, Levenhuk Rainbow 50L PLUS Microscope provides 64x minimum magnification. You won't be able to get 10x or 20x magnifications with this model. Jerry Steele
